Anyone use Hulu Plus? The wife and I have been looking at it over the past few days. We currently have Netflix, but she mainly uses it for watching TV series, such as Bones, which she is watching now.

I've had it for a few years now. No real complaints. You still get some ads, but can stream it directly to your TV if you've got internet ready TV or a roku-type thing.
They import a lot of really cool stuff from the UK, Canada, etc too.

Really depends on how much you watch TV currently. If you like season-long marathons instead of waiting each week, just stick with Netflix.

I have it so I can watch stuff on Hulu on my X-Box instead of being tethered to the laptop, though a couple shows I wanna watch (Shin-Chan, Archer) ate still limited to "Web Only". I've used it more than Netflix, but I'm more of a TV show guy than a movie guy anyway. I do know a few people that think I'm nuts for having Hulu Plus though. Might be worth it to do the trial.

I realized I never posted my question in the OP. I am leaning towards Hulu Plus for current shows, now that we're going without cable. But does it have complete series as well, like Netfiix does?

WWE NXT is the reason I have this, but I like it a lot.

Depends on the show. Off the top of my head, its got every episode of Xfiles, Community and a few others. If you want to know about specific shows just let me know. Between Netflix Instant and Hulu+ I'm pretty set for TV and films. For shows like Archer and Walking Dead I end up buying the episodes as they come out on Amazon as they come out, but I'd probably buy them when they come out on Blu Ray anyway.

A few. hit or miss. Personally, seems like the shows I really want to watch only have the latest season or two on it.

If you are on the fence about Hulu, set up the 1 or 2 week trial. I personally do not like the layout, but having Netflix and Hulu is still only a fraction of our former cable bill. Also, Redbox is supposed to be starting a streaming service soon.

I've found Hulu Plus is great for catching up on current shows, but for the most part are limited to the current season.
